Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Family therapy focuses on problematic family relationships and interactions. The patient has already identified problems within the family.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Autistic disorder involves distortions in the development of social skills and language that include perception, motor movement, attention, and reality testing. Caretakers frequently mention the child's failure to develop interpersonal skills. The distracters are more relevant to ADHD, separation anxiety, and CD.
